He confirmed that the team remains unchanged from the last match.

On the other side, Jos Buttler the England captain, opted to bowl first, reasoning that the early morning conditions would favor his bowlers. He noted the quick turnaround between matches and acknowledged the tough competition posed by the USA, highlighting the importance of executing their game plan effectively.
